Definitely try a private charter if you can! Much better than party boat fishing.

Early summer, this year was record warm water in August and it slows down the bite.

July is a hot, fall or spring would be more weather comfortable but it's still worth the trip.

Call the charter direct and ask questions first. Don't book through fishing booker.
